I do think keeping your chain tight on the bar helps, but it seems to still have a lot of variance (movement) throughout the remainder of the sharpening process.

I worked on a sawmill log deck back when all the logs were skidded through the dirt, which made it very difficult to maintain a sharp chain. I tried every gadget I could find and they helped me to learn the proper angle, depth, and raker tolerance. Once I understood how the shapes of the three surfaces should appear and could guide the file through the gullet in a straight line with light pressure back and then up, I was able to feel and hear when the tooth was sharp. It took a lot time to get good at it, but the better I got the easier my job was. The joy that I feel when the saw pulls itself into the log effortlessly and the engine honks like a Harley Davidson is the main reason that I enjoy processing my firewood. Remember to follow the rule of the 7 P's - prior proper planning prevents piss poor performance!

Very interesting. I was going to ask if you knocked a bit off of the depth gauges. You said you did and didnt film it. Is that part of the shapener as well or did you do that manually with a file? Great demo of this tool. Thanks!
@TonysTractorAdventure2 жыл бұрын
Manual file. That is not always needed because the rake wears down dragging on the wood. I hit it very quickly with a flat file and gauge.

It's a Timberline unless a knockoff, great tool the genuine one yours looks to be a copy, used it for years but it's retired now for a hand file. The TCT bits wear and the guides do too, however NOTHING will ever beat a hand file with a good 90 degree handle guide PERIOD !

Can't believe how the RPM falls off with a little pressure. Also, filing a chain on the bar puts filings in the chain bar groove, not good, especially if it's oily .

I have one of these sharpeners, at first I liked it alot then.... I found out that the reamer (file) likes to crawl on top of the blades and the pushing bars do get filed if one doesn't keep an eye on them. If one uses the CORRECT file (most are ⅜") I can achieve just as sharp affect as using this sharpener.

This tool does nothing for the rakers, you'll still have to hand file them which makes this tool useless

Old Smoke Eater is correct in that you have to file your rakes, but a rake file has nothing to do with filing your chisel. I stand by this video and the result seen with your own eyes.

I have one of these Timberwolf sharpeners sitting on my shelf. It’s been there for 4 years, I wasn’t impressed with it. I use a Stihl 2in1 instead. It does a much better job as far as I’m concerned. I only cut dry Australian hardwoods for firewood. If anyone in Australia wants it it yours for the price of postage.
